    Rose Bowl Opener

    USC just opened as a 6 point favorite over Texas. Thoughts?

    I'm thinking this line comes down closer to game time.

    6.5 at Pinnacle, 6 at CRIS, I think it shifts toward Texas as we get closer to Jan. 4th

    I'm telling you guys, the public will be all over the Trojans. Just wait until the lines hit 7 or 7.5 and then pound Texas. That's what I am gonna do.

    I'll be sure to bump this thread close to game time. I'm telling you, this line will close around 7/7.5

    I think it will be lower than that. I've talked to maybe 15 people about this. Exactly three said they thought USC would win. Not cover, win.

    It must depend on what part of the country you live in. Everybody that I have talked to in the Chicago area thinks USC will win big.

    I think this line will close at 5 if not lower, especially if Oregon loses to Oklahoma and the Pac-10 schools fare badly in their bowl games and the Big 12 teams do well (just like last year where Oklahoma closed as the favorite)

    I agree. And I doubt the game result will be that close... whichever way it goes.
